Technical Reports &
EXAMPLES OF PResentations

Please see the links below for examples of ROVs from previous MATE Competitions. The 2015 page also includes examples of sales presentations from the international competition.

Also provided is an example budget spreadsheet (created in Excel) that teams are welcome to use to meet the budget requirement of their technical reports.

Note: Take care when reviewing these technical reports. Reports are reviewed after submission for potential safety violations. While teams do have to address these violations before they can compete at the international event, they do not have to resubmit their reports. The reports posted here may contain safety violations.

Safety violations identified within these reports will be posted for reports submitted in 2012 and 2013. However, if you are considering using a particular technique on your own vehicle and want to confirm that it does not violate MATE safety standards, contact the MATE Center.
